Absolutely love this place. Best Thai food in town, and a spice level for everyone, no matter how hot or mild you like it.

Absolutely love Leo's food and he's always friendly. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. Pad Thai is one of my favorites.

Delicious food! Made to accommodate different spicy level. We came during busy time when there was lots of pick up order back to back, so we waited a little longer for the food but the owner was very nice and apologetic about it. The is definitely authentic! We got the Chicken Pad Thai and the Spicy Noodles.

We recently ate lunch here with our coworkers, and I was thrilled with everything! Our server was friendly, attentive, and helpful, and the FOOD! Oh my gosh, it was so good. I had the Masaman curry with some papaya salad, and we split an order of spring rolls. I would eat here every week if I could! The food was fresh and delicious, and the flavours were everything I had hoped for and then some! It had me whimsically thinking of how much I'd love to go back to Thailand, as I haven't had Thai food this yummy since we were there! Thank you for such a great lunch - we will be back again sometime soon!

First time here, service was great, food was great, they asked 7s what our spice tolerance was which was great. Don't let the run down look fool you.

One of the most authentic Thai restaurants in the area. Food was great and you can choose meat type and spice level. Parking is right in front but also there are plenty of public parking within walking distance.

Should the curry menu be in the soup section.? Never seen such kind of Thai cury dish in my entire life. Am curious to know what kind of curry is that and what's the history behind it to serve it as a soup( the consistency). Was excited until I opened the dish and was super disappointed when I saw the veggies and chicken and sea food floting in the spicy water..lol

Roy Thai is amazing. An absolute favorite of our family. The service is above & beyond in expectations. It's friendly & professional. The menu is accommodating for a plant-based diet. Some of my personal favorites so far include: their delicious vegetarian Pad Thai, the vegetarian ginger stir-fry with tofu & vegetarian fried Thai basil rice. Whether eating there or ordering it as take out, it's always amazingly delicious & well-prepared. Thanks guys.

Their vegetable Tom Yum soup with a side of jasmine rice hits the spot every time. Whenever I m feeling a little under the weather, I ask a loved one to go pick some up for me lol. It s so warm and full of flavour, and soothing. Highly recommend

We order pad thai from here often. My grandson loves the tofu (I dont mind it either) and we get the chicken often and shrimp (wish there was more of those swimmers in there but for the price its just right!) Owner is extremely accommodating as we all like different heat levels and have a lot of specific requests. We have never had a bad meal from here. The spring rolls are delicious and everything is fresh and hot. We usually do take out but I have dined in once..possibly twice. Service is always good and owner is very attentive. I definitely recommend giving them a try! Only complaint is I want pad thai today and you are closed lol but that is just a me problem! Probably see you tomorrow though!

We were not impressed with the portion sizes, the curry was very soup like and the pad Thai did not seem authentic. With our take out order, it all leaked in our bag and it might have been too much liquid in my curry dish.

December 22, 2022

Ordered red shrimp curry, but got a chicken watery soup instead. Terrible experience and a waste of money.

December 22, 2022

If I could give 0 stars I would. This was some of the worst food I have ever eaten in my life. A lot of the components were raw...the pad thai you see was basically just noodles with a few pieces of raw brocilli. I paid $3 more to get shrimp instead of the other proteins and was given 3 small pieces of boiled shrimp. The food is way over priced for the quality and the amount of protein you get and Roy is ripping his customers off with this. Avoid this place at all costs because this is not thai food.

Ive ordered food here several times and always gotten a good meal. You wont find chicken balls here. Instead you will find Asian food that is spicy and delicious on the tummy.

December 22, 2022

Flavourless curry all around, but stay away from the rice dishes. Ingredients would have been unacceptable in a high school cafeteria in an impoverished school districts. As others noted, soupy to the point of water, even the usually thicker penang curry--which had never seen a peanut. At least the noodles soaked up some of the flavorless glop. Dining room was dreary and greasy feeling. Sorry to be negative but I was really looking forward to Thai food. Im also not impressed by the snotty defensive comments added by the owner, accusing posters of lying. I have no reason to defame you, I just wanted a decent meal. True, when I pay this much I dont expect to have to work to phone you with my concerns. Your comments are downright misogynistic as well as evasive.. Truth be told, the food was disgusting. Love and blessings, Susan

I had the fried chicken with cashew nuts on steamed rice. It was so full of well balanced flavours and the veggies were still nice and crunchy. It was made very quickly and the service was professional and kind. It was a great experience and I would recommend this to any friend. Yum yum yum. Thank you!

I took up Roy Thais offer to give them a second chance and things were much improved. The fresh spring rolls were improved by the much thickened peanut sauce. The pad Thai was fine and I truly enjoyed the Pad Kee Mao and would recommend that dish. However I still did not enjoy the Red Curry because it is mostly a watery broth. I would eat here again.

First time trying Roy Thai in Leamington and it was good, no great but that may have just been the item that I ordered. The Lad Nar really lacked flavour, I added some extra spice and peanut sauce to the broth to make it taste a bit better which helped but it was still underwhelming. One of the reasons why I didnt give this place a 4 star is because I ordered the item with tofu but found a piece of chicken in it! (while Im not a vegetarian, this could have been an issue if I was). The service was very friendly so I will return again to try something else that usually has more flavour like green curry or pad thai. Stay tuned for another review once I go back :)
